Did y’all come to gawk, or did y’all come to rock?
Writing my whole life, yeah I’m winding down the clock
I’m working to the bone, I don’t think I’ll ever stop
Hold up, scratch that—I’m headed for the top
Came out of the womb singing like it’s made for me,
Scratching on the paper like it’s meant to be,
I thought I reached the end but I’ve pulled something out of me
Ink stains internally and words are erupting.
If you’ve got a dream, you gotta make it routine,
You’ve gotta keep going even if you deplete
This world might be critical and over-analytical
And I know it’s difficult but stop being pitiful
Break down the door or move on, yeah
Break down the door or move on, yeah
There’s nothing you can do when you’ve given your all
You gotta pick yourself up after you fall, yeah
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
My inspiration might be down
But I will never bleed out
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
Try to kill me, I’ll resurrect
One day our punches will connect
There’s no love in this art anymore
Singing is fake and fake out-performs
Rapping is mumbling and songs sound the same
Got a fat bass but the heart is ashamed
We’re all brainwashed, drowning in pop,
Want to make money? Gotta stay on top
Leave for a day and you’ll be replaced
There’s always someone else that can take your place
Hey, but I don’t want to be indispensable
I want to be the needle in the haystack
I don’t want to be famous but I wanna appreciated
In a world where we only want what’s free
Break down the door or move on, yeah
Break down the door or move on, yeah
There’s nothing you can do when you’ve given your all
You gotta pick yourself up after you fall, yeah
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
My inspiration might be down
But I will never bleed out
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
Try to kill me, I’ll resurrect
One day my punches will connect
Give me dark pop, give me hard rock
Give me everything in between, non-stop
Am I too loud? Am I too proud?
If you feel me, then scream out.
Fists in the air we done found another route.
There’s no gate completed that can hold us now
Music is my therapy for when I’m unhappy
But our default emotion should not always be happy
Let me be sad and let me be mad
Just let me process these moment’s I’ve had
Don’t rip out my throat to keep me from screaming
But don’t walk away when you see me bleeding
I’m learning to walk on my own again
I’m learning to trust my instincts again
I found this new confidence it’s setting me free
Because finally I can be me
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
My inspiration might be down
But I will never bleed out
There’s no way I’m ever backing down
There’s no way I’m ever stopping now
Try to kill me, I’ll resurrect
One day my punches will connect
tylt has been singing and creating music for as long as she can remember. It wasn't until recently she adopted the name
'tylt' because she believes that if she can't change the world's view on things, then maybe she can tilt it.
